We are so excited to bring you 12 local businesses and 12 chances to win some seriously amazing meals, gifts, services and more- just in time for the holidays! Without further ado, we bring you today’s fantastic-for-the-holidays prize from Loveday 31! One of Astoria’s retail gems, Loveday 31 is a treasure trove of vintage dresses, shoes, boots, accessories, belts and more! Lucky Magazine even said, “The vintage clothing, shoes, and bags here are incredible—and cost half what you’d pay in Manhattan.” This charming shop is the perfect place to find the just right holiday outfit or to buy hard-to-shop-for friends and family great gifts. Leave a comment below and be entered to win a $50 gift certificate to Loveday 31!! Just tell us one reason you love vintage, and you’ll be entered to win. If I won a $50 gift certificate from Loveday I’d invest in a new must-have vintage dress (maybe something with some sparkle) to pair with winter boots and a cardigan. We’ll pick one winner, at random, at the end of the day on Wednesday, December 8th. Be sure to leave your email when filing out the form, too! Good luck and happy shopping.

Watch for the winner in our Day 4 post, Inside Astoria. jenn December 8th, 2010 I love shopping vintage because I dont have to worry about someone else showing up to a party with the same dress- because its not H&M :-) Faith December 8th, 2010 Vintage is the best! It’s made better, it looks great (still) and you get more value for the price. Keriann December 8th, 2010 I love shopping vintage because it’s like going on an exploration – and when you find a great piece, you win! Nicole December 7th, 2010 I love vintage because of the thrill of the hunt. Nothing beats finding something great that everyone else will adore at a party or out with friends later…and you know they won’t be able to find the exact same thing because it’s one-of-a-kind! Ali - YumVeggieBurger December 7th, 2010 I love vintage because I’m very picky about the styles that I wear, and usually vintage/thrift stores are the only places I can only find really creative pieces that fit what I’m looking for. Andrea December 6th, 2010 Buying vintage is owning a piece of wearable art history. Helene December 6th, 2010 I feel pretty in vintage! Jenny December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it has a history. You are wearing an item that another person cherished when it hung in their wardrobe and now you have the chance to do the same. Plus, the fashions in the past were fabulous – which is why they keep cycling back! Eileen Diskin December 6th, 2010 Why do I love vintage? Because it reminds me of a time when women looked sexy and not trashy – when women were classic, timeless beauties and not borderline tramps. It really is the only way to show your feminine side. Ashley Willisch December 6th, 2010 Love a vintage purse or vintage accessories to make a boring outfit conversation worthy! maiah December 6th, 2010 Great giveaway! I actually love vintage for the accessories. The belts, the clutches, the boots, the sunglasses. It’s an incredible way to add a pop to your wardrobe that you know will never be duplicated by anyone else. Reeva December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it tells a story. Elisabeth December 6th, 2010 Vintage lets you create a one-of-a-kind unique look. When I buy vintage, I know it is very unlikely that I will see someone else wearing the same thing! mia December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because I will never show up wearing the same thing as someone else and because it is more fun. My favorite dress is from loveday! It gets tons of compliments. Sadie December 6th, 2010 Vintage is great because it has soul. There’s always a story behind it, unlike stuff from the department store. I often wonder who owned period pieces before I did…wish there was a way to keep track of the history. Jane Marie December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it keeps you looking a little different than everyone else! Steph December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it reminds me of my sister – who is oh-so-cool. If I win, I would give this gift certificate to her! Jen December 6th, 2010 Vintage will never go out of style – always a classic! jeanette December 6th, 2010 I love vintage clothes for sooo many reasons: eco-friendly, better quality, amazing retro patterns, buttons to die for, and authentic retro style! laurie December 6th, 2010 i love vintage! the best part is that when you go out no one will be wearing the same thing! Natalie December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it’s timeless! Loveday’s vintage jewelry is such a find! Kelly December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it’s more fun! Vicki December 6th, 2010 Bought a great pair pink/orange heels at Loveday!

It’s fashionable to recycle! And, like Natalie said, it makes you unique! Ana PS December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it never goes out of style! Karenpuppy December 6th, 2010 Vintage stores smell like the ’70s…in the best possible way. Natalie December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it’s a good chance no one else will have what I’m sporting. :) Plus, I love knowing whatever I have on has many stories and I’m creating another chapter. SRF530 December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it is original, environmentally friendly and most of the time better quality then clothes manufactured today. Stephanie December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because there’s an air of romance behind the clothing- everything has a story! Hamberguesa December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because I love clothing with a history and a sense of character. Heather December 6th, 2010 I love vintage because it tends to for better on curvy bodies. And it’s much more unique. Alex December 6th, 2010 I love the uniqueness of vintage items. Sue Yacka December 6th, 2010 I love vintage, and Loveday 31 specifically, because one day I was walking by and on their outdoor clothes rack I spied a shirt that I currently wear (and have owned for a LONG time)! I must admit it made me feel a little old, however I was happy to learn that I am fashionable again!!! Comments are closed.
